oriels recommendation, page-36

re: oriels recommendation - what i like What I like about Oriel's report is that it is the most comprehensive and informed analysis that I have read.

Many brokers focus on only a small part of Hardmans interests and miss the big picture.

I expect that there exists a strong relationship between Oriel and Hardman chiefs as they were responsible for the UK AIM listing.

Never the less their report certainly seems to be based on fact or conservative estimates without any unjustifiable bias towards Hardman.

In short the report is an in depth analysis of all Hardmans activities and prospects.

I have not seen the Huntley report, but I would like to if anyone can please email it to me at [email protected].

I suspect that like some others it may be focusssed on the short term exploration risks in Mauritainia which are certainly valid but miss the bigger picture of a major oil producing company in the making.
